I find it wild to go to a different country where they have different laws where there are so many more billboards. It's already bad here but seeing how it could be even worse is insane.

Yeah. India is fucking wild when it comes to billboards. New York billboards looks pleasing to the eyes comparatively lol.

They can be pretty funny though. I saw one that said "LEPROSY IS COMPLETLY CURRBAL" and underneath there was a bit of space left so they drew a crude map of the T-junction nearby with names of where each street goes.
